So when you check for that specific Velcro Tape, Amazon advices you to buy also the grippers and the clamp with it. :D

Couldn’t find the grippers and Velcro anywhere, so thanks for this link. Would you happen to know a place on the Internet to buy the nylon strap or a good alternative?

Anyone from the UK know where to get the Velcro tape from?

Thanks

B&Q do a good industrial tape 2” wide. You can cut it down and make plenty of wenches.

Thanks mate.

BTW have you built one for yourself? If so, what branded materials did you use from the UK?

Cheers!

I’m new to this forum and this invention is depressing. I have been working on my own novel PE device and it works really well but costs about ten times as much as this Capt’s wrench. You’ve just ruined my hopes for making some big bucks.

However, I desperately need another inch so I’ll be off to Lowe’s for the erector set, velcro, pads etc. I’ve actually got a suitcase full of PVC, velcro, bungee cords and all sorts of stuff I was using trying to make my own. My hat’s off to someone smart and not greedy sharing it with everyone. Other forums I have been on are heavy on promoting their equipment or surgery. BD

Great find on amazon Cyclope. I wonder how many purchases they base that information on? Amazon is the new one stop shop!
